| Summary: | My chosen inspiring work of art is an especially amazing iceberg I saw on an expedition in the Antarctic. The artist is Nature itself, and although I will submit a photograph of one iceberg, there were countless others I could submit. The Antarctic is a unique continent, in the sense of minimum interference from the Anthropocene. So, it is the closest we come to the creation of the natural world, and thereby, a sense of spirituality. This essay will explore this last frontier, as a "no-man’s land that belongs to everyone", through its history, geography, and ecology, as a protected territory, a natural reserve, devoted to peace and science as an aspiration. |
